Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Shekinah has studied French since elementary school, and, after beginning classes at USC, she decided to continue pursuing her studies of French language and culture.
When she heard about the opportunity to be a part of the Voltaire Project at the university, she was excited and eager to contribute. After declaring French as her second major, she went on to participate (May-June 2017) in a research-driven French course that took her and her peers to Senegal, where she conducted research regarding attitudes towards mental health, and mental and emotional disorders in Senegal, as compared to those found in the United States.
